Solution

The correct options are
C
Photoelectric effect

D
Black body Radiation

The wave nature of light is explained by the following properties:
(a)Interference(b) Diffraction

The particle nature of light is explained by:
(a)Black Body radiation
(b)Photoelectric effect

$\Rightarrow$ Some properties are explained by the wave nature of light while some other properties are explained by the particle nature of light. That is why we say light has a dual nature.
